bodywork & massage.

movement based or hands-on.

your body will understand it

long before your mind has words for it.

somatic education, bodywork, and healing are a
combination of the passive, restorative, and relaxing
features of traditional bodywork and
the somatically-based interventions of Zapchen, which give you greater awareness of your body and the intelligence and resourcefulness within you.

by bringing the clear light of awareness and the warm hands of compassion to the contractions and stress reflexes that pull your body into painful
distortions of your natural, vibrant well-being, we are able to unwind the patterns that perpetuate discomfort and pain so that you feel as good you
can, regardless of circumstances.

resolve aches, pains, and injuries

feel better as a body and take more pleasure in being

be more easily productive

enhance choice and satisfaction

notice an increased ability to be present

build an acuity of awareness

access healing

individual sessions are 60 or 90 minutes and couples sessions are 90 minutes or two-hours at our North Berkeley location.

conjunctio practices Zapchen Somatics. Zapchen is a hybrid of the relatively new field of somatic psychotherapy with the
long established traditions of tibetan buddhism. Zapchen forms the basis of a renewed approach to the fields of somatic psychotherapy, relationship
counseling, sexuality, self-regulation of neurochemistry, shock and trauma resolution, bodywork, mindfulness and meditation.
